To identify the statistical methods more frequently used in the medical literature, we reviewed 4,218 papers equivalent to 26 years/periodical. 26% of the papers did not have any statistical method. In the remaining 74% only descriptive (24.5%) or inferential (75.5%) methods were used. Overall there were 3,882 inferential test done. Based on a probability analysis we propose a framework to rationalize the teaching of statistics to improve the decision making process in medicine.
为了确定医学文献中更常用的统计方法，我们查阅了相当于26年/期刊的4218篇论文。26%的论文未使用任何统计方法。在其余74%的论文中，仅使用了描述性方法（24.5%）或推断性方法（75.5%）。总共进行了3882次推断性检验。基于概率分析，我们提出了一个框架，以使统计学教学合理化，从而改善医学决策过程。
